Albert Barnes Commentary 2 Kings 22:19

"because thy heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before Jehovah, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard thee, saith Jehovah." — 2 Kings 22:19 (ASV)
