2 Samuel 4:3-5

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³ (Now the people of Beeroth had fled to Gittaim and are there as resident aliens to this day).

⁴ Saul’s son Jonathan had a son who was crippled in his feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel. His nurse picked him up and fled; and, in her haste to flee, it happened that he fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.^[a]

⁵ Now the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, set out, and about the heat of the day they came to the house of Ishbaal,^[b] while he was taking his noonday rest.
