Exegesis
The relative clause asher-yarimu {אֲשֶׁר־יָרִ֖ימוּ | ʾă-šer-yā-rî-mû} ‘which they lift up’ modifies “holy things,” and the preposition la-YHWH {לַיהוָֽה | la-yə-hō-wāh} ‘to the LORD’ marks the goal of the offerings. The construct chain and relative clause structure have been rendered in English with a subordinate clause to preserve the Hebrew relational flow.
In context — Leviticus 22:15
And they shall not profane the holy things of the sons of Israel, those which they lift up as offerings to the LORD .
