Exegesis
The relative clause introduced by asher {אֲשֶׁר | ʾăšer} ‘that’ modifies yom, with the Hifil perfect he‘elêti {הֶעֱלֵיתִי | he‘ēlêṯî} ‘I brought up’ taking et-yisra’el {אֵת־יִשְׂרָאֵל | ʾeṯ-yisrāʾēl} as its direct object.
In context — 1 Chronicles 17:5
For I have not dwelt in a house from the day that I brought up Israel until this day, but I have been from tent to tent and from one tabernacle to another.
