Because thine heart was tender
 Soft like wax, and susceptible of impressions; or was "moved", or "trembled", as the Targum; for God has respect to such as are of contrite hearts, and tremble at his word, ( Isaiah 66:2 ) , 
 and thou hast humbled thyself before the Lord;
 external humiliation, such as in Ahab, was regarded by the Lord, much more internal and cordial humiliation is regarded by him, see ( 1 Kings 21:29 ) , 
 when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the
 inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse;
 as in ( Leviticus 26:1 ) ( Deuteronomy 28:1 ) 
 and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me;
 as expressive of the inward contrition, sorrow, and grief of his heart: 
 I also have heard thee, saith the Lord:
 his cries and prayers.
