speudo describes urgent movement or action, including hurrying toward a destination, departure, or anticipated event.

The attested use consistently marks urgency: people come, descend, depart, or travel without delay, and a present participle applies that urgency toward the coming day of God. The surrounding clauses show haste directed toward a concrete destination, action, or anticipated event rather than a distinct range of unrelated uses.

   The aorist participles describe coming with haste and finding the infant in Luke 2:16, and Zacchaeus coming down after Jesus' command in Luke 19:5 and Luke 19:6. In Acts 20:16 the imperfect form explains Paul's urgency to reach Jerusalem, while the aorist imperative in Acts 22:18 directs a quick departure; in 2 Peter 3:12 the present participle stands with looking for the coming day of God. The APB renders these clauses with expressions such as "came with haste," "hurry," "was hurrying," and "Make haste."
