‏ Genesis 23:7

7Abraham arose, and he reverenced the people of the land, namely, the sons of Heth.
23:7 Bowed down to the people: Adoravit, literally adored. But this word here, as well as in many other places in the Latin scriptures, is used to signify only an inferior honour and reverence paid to men, expressed by a bowing down of the body.(Challoner)
