Rashi, on Jer 51:9

“We would have cured Babylon, but she is not healed: let us forsake her, and let us go every man to his own land: because her judgment hath reached even to the heavens, and is lifted up to the clouds.”

“her judgment has touched the sky Their retribution has reached high up to the sky.”
