Yehotsafatx poltxe Olo'eyktan Yisraelur san ätxäle si tsnì livu moheru fìtrr lì'u Yawäyä.

Jehoshaphat said to the King of Israel, "Make request that there be for us today the Word of Yahweh."

The examples of ätxäle si tsnì all have a verb in the dependent clause.  Is it possible to say, "request the Word of Yahweh" without a verb after ätxäle?
'Ivong, Na'vi!

Hm, not according to official example: Ätxäle si tsnì livu oheru Uniltaron. "I respectfully request the Dream Hunt." which is more literally 'I request to have the Dream Hunt'.
Your sentence would work the same way.

So I could say

ätxäle si tsnì lì'u Yawäyä 

???
'Ivong, Na'vi!

No, I meant:
   ätxäle si tsnì livu oeru lì'u Yawäyä

I'm not sure whether ätxäle si lì'ur(u) Yawäyä is possible
