Exegesis
The conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí} links the spoken confession to the enacted response, and prosekynēsen {προσεκύνησεν | pro-se-ký-nē-sen} with autō {αὐτῷ | au-tô} marks a completed act of worship directed to Him. The verse therefore moves from speech to bodily reverence in one compact progression, showing that belief immediately becomes adoration.
In context — John 9:38
Then he spoke, “Lord , I believe ,” and he worshiped Him.
