Exegesis
The first prohibition is qualified by a circumstantial infinitive clause baharimkhem {בַּהֲרִֽימְכֶ֥ם | ba-harîm-ḵem} ‘when you lift up’, which frames the act that would incur liability.
In context — Numbers 18:32
You shall not bear sin when you lift up its best part ; nor shall you profane the holy things of the Israelites, and you shall not die.
