The beans that have gone limp are either lacking in water, or have completely ripened. You can try watering the plant to see if they firm up again; if not, they are probably fully developed. In this case you can remove the beans from the pods and either eat them right away or allow them to dry for later consumption - or they can be saved for next years seed.
