הוֹי חֹֽשְׁבֵי־אָוֶן וּפֹעֲלֵי רָע עַל־מִשְׁכְּבוֹתָם בְּאוֹר הַבֹּקֶר יַעֲשׂוּהָ כִּי יֶשׁ־לְאֵל יָדָֽם׃
Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they execute it, because it is in the power of their hand.

Rashi
וְחָמְדוּ שָׂדוֹת וְגָזָלוּ וּבָתִּים וְנָשָׂאוּ וְעָֽשְׁקוּ גֶּבֶר וּבֵיתוֹ וְאִישׁ וְנַחֲלָתֽוֹ׃ {ס}
And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
Rashi
וּבָתִּים וְנָשָׂאוּ. מוּסָב עַל וְחָמְדוּ חוֹמְדִים בָּתִּים:
and houses, and they take—This refers back to “and they covet.” They covet houses.
וְנָשָׂאוּ. כְּמוֹ ׳וְלָקְחוּ׳:
and they take Heb. וְנָשָׂאוּ, like וְלָקָחוּ, and they take.
וּפֹעֲלֵי רָע עַל מִשְׁכְּבוֹתָם. כָּל הַלַּיְלָה גּוֹמְרִים בְּלִבָּם אֵיךְ יַעֲשׂוּ הָרָעָה לַבֹּקֶר:
and work evil on their bed—All night they decide in their hearts how they will perform evil in the morning.
