In summary

Inherited from Middle French bidon (“small portable container, sealed and made of wood or metal”), from Old Norse bida, *biða (“container, vessel”), from Proto-Germanic *bidōn, *bidjan (“tub, vessel, vat”), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰidʰ- (“pot, bucket, barrel”), from *bʰeydʰ- (“to weave, bind”).
