Exegesis
The direct object marker et {אֶת | ʾet} highlights maʿasar {מַעְשַׂר | maʿă-sar}, which appears in a Hiphil relative clause (ʾăšer yārîmū lâ-YHWH tĕrûmâ {אֲשֶׁר יָרִימוּ לַיהוָה תְּרוּמָה}) linking the act of lifting to the divine recipient.
In context — Numbers 18:24
For the tithe of the Israelites, which they lift up as an offering to the LORD , I have given to the Levites as an inheritance. Therefore, I said to them, “They shall have no inheritance among the Israelites.”
