وَيَخِرُّونَ لِلْأَذْقَانِ يَبْكُونَ وَيَزِيدُهُمْ خُشُوعًۭا ۩ ١٠٩

Saheeh International

And they fall upon their faces weeping, and the Qur'an increases them in humble submission.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

وَيَخِرُّونَ لِلَذْقَانِ يَبْكُونَAnd they fall down on their chins (faces) weeping,means, in submission to Allah, may He be glorified, and in expression of their belief and faith in His Book and His Messenger.وَيَزِيدُهُمْ خُشُوعًاand it increases their humility.means, it increases them in faith and submission.As Allah says:وَالَّذِينَ اهْتَدَوْاْ زَادَهُمْ هُدًى وَءَاتَـهُمْ تَقُوَاهُمْWhile as for those who accept guidance, He increases their guidance and bestows on them their Taqwa. (47:17) وَيَخِرُّونَ (And they fall down),is a description rather than an action (i.e., this is a further description of their humility as referred to in Ayah 107; it does not imply that they prostrate twice)
