3029. About the joy of happiness in heaven of those glorifying the Lord
Just now very many of the good were glorifying the Lord on account of His coming and their liberation from hell, and there was so great a joy of happiness that some were saying they could not endure it. 1748, 1 Sept. There was as it were a general glorification, so that even from some in hell there was also a desire to glorify, as I heard from certain ones who came from there, but from those who [dwell] in latrines. 1748, 1 Sept.
The next morning, all things were in a state of tranquility, so that I felt nothing but calmness, around me, silence, which still continues. 1748, 2 Sept.

3029. De gaudio felicitatis in coelo, glorificantium Dominum
Nunc permulti boni glorificabant Dominum propter adventum Ipsius, et liberationem eorum ab inferno, et erat tantum gaudium felicitatis, ut quidam 1
dicerent, quod non sustinere possent. 1748, 1 Sept. Glorificatio communis quasi erat, sic ut quoque a quibusdam in inferno quoque cupiebatur 2
glorificare, sicut audiebam a quibusdam qui inde, sed ab iis, qui in latrinis. 1748, 1 Sept.
Postero mane omnia erant in tranquillitatis statu, sic ut nihil nisi tranquillum perciperem, circum me, silentium, quod adhuc perstat. 1748, 2 Sept.
