Tomorrow I will bring you the money I borrowed. = Tomorrow I will bring the money I borrowed to you BRING is a transitive verb, it means it takes direct object (THE MONEY), the action completely passes on direct object. Whereas indirect object (YOU) usually expresses the RECEIVER of the action, whom the action is directed to.
