Phrasal Verb "BRING UP"

[FrankenStein]

Hello! Can anyone help me with a difficult problem. Is it possible to say "Don't bring up the bowl to your mouth?" I think the correct sentence should be "Don't bring the bowl up to your mouth" but I have been told that both are correct. The former one sounds strange to me. HELP ME PLEASE!

[JJM Ballantyne]
