On weekdays without their own proper, the Mass takes the Sunday’s prayers.
CollectAug 11, 2023
Omnipotens sempiterne Deus, quem [docente Spiritu Sancto – not in the 1970MR] paterno nomine invocare praesumimus, perfice in cordibus nostris spiritum adoptionis filiorum, ut promissam hereditatem ingredi mereamur.
The Collect for the 19th Sunday of Ordinary Time was not in previous editions Missale Romanum before the 1970 Novus Ordo.

CollectAug 8, 2010
Omnipotens sempiterne Deus, quem paterno nomine invocare praesumimus, perfice in cordibus nostris spiritum adoptionis filiorum, ut promissam hereditatem ingredi mereamur.

Ecclesiae tuae, Domine, munera placatus assume, quae et misericors offerenda tribuisti, et in nostrae salutis potenter efficis transire mysterium.
Literal renderingHaving been appeased, O Lord, take unto Yourself the gifts of Your Church which You both mercifully bestowed as things to be offered as sacrifices and You are causing mightily to transform into the mysterious sacrament of our salvation.
What Does the Prayer Really Say? 19th Sunday of Ordinary Time ORIGINALLY PRINTED IN The Wanderer in 2006 Those who have been resisting the norms laid down in Liturgiam authenticam appeal to a theory of translation that would peg our liturgical texts to the ever-shifting style of common parlance. They are, in short, impossibly proposing to make everything “understandable” by…
