A carefully phrased question.
 
A translation translates the word proskuneo as obeisance and worship. 
 
Strong's : G4352
s???e´?
roskuneo¯
pros-koo-neh'-o
>From G4314 and probably a derivative of G2965 (meaning to kiss, like a
dog licking his master’s hand); to fawn or crouch to, that is, (literally
or figuratively) prostrate oneself in homage (do reverence to, adore): -
worship.
 
Could this greek word for worship be translated obeisance? I have not
been able to find a dictionary to support this. I believe this directly
relates to translation and does not name names and is very specific.
