quit, stop, leave, withdraw, go
罷 centers on ceasing an activity or state: quitting, stopping, leaving, or withdrawing from something. The sense of 'go' is an older or literary application of departing or ending.
罷 combines 罒 (net) and 能 (ability/bear), but the historical origin is not a simple semantic compound. It likely originally depicted a bear caught in a net, symbolizing being stopped or exhausted, which extended to quitting or ceasing.
Imagine a bear (能) tangled in a net (罒) and unable to continue—it has to quit, stop, and withdraw from the struggle.
For ヒ, picture the bear letting out a weary 'hee' sound as it gives up: hee -> ヒ, and the exhausted bear quits.
