In summary

17th century, at first alongside spuden, both secondary adaptations of Middle Low German spôden, from Old Saxon spōdian, from Proto-West Germanic *spōdijan, derived from *spōdi (“prosperity, success”), itself from the verb *spōan, from Proto-Germanic *spōaną (“to prosper, succeed, be happy”), from Proto-Indo-European *speh₁- (“to prosper, turn out well”). The West Germanic verb had a cognate in Old High German spuoten, which however remained without continuation. Cognate with Dutch spoeden, English speed.
