I caused to ascend

Morphological NotesHiphil (causative) perfect, 1st person common singular of עלה.
Rendering RationaleThe Hiphil stem is causative, so the action is not simply 'I ascended' but 'I caused to ascend' or 'I brought up.' The perfect 1st person singular is reflected in 'I caused,' preserving both root ascent imagery and morphology.
