The bible verse in question goes as follows:

the Celtics All-Star's new tattoo adds to the several he already has. The 21-year-old has tattoos of his high school and college jerseys, a picture of him and his son and a tribute tattoo to his hometown of St. Louis among others.
On the court, the former No. 3 overall pick is enjoying a breakout season for the Celtics. In 50 games this season, Tatum is averaging a career-high 22.4 points, 6.9 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game while shooting 44.3 percent from the field and 38.2 percent from deep.
This season, Tatum was also named an All-Star for the first time in his three-year career.
In their first game after the All-Star break, Tatum nearly eclipsed 30 points and added 11 rebounds while the Celtics as a whole became the first team since 2006 to have four starters score 25 points or more (Tatum, Brown, Hayward and Theis.)
