'Talents' in the Bible

And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, that owed him ten thousand talents.

And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his several ability; and he went on his journey.

Straightway he that received the five talents went and traded with them, and made other five talents.

And he that received the five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: lo, I have gained other five talents.

And he also that received the two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: lo, I have gained other two talents.

Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents.
