The Collect for the 30th Ordinary Sunday, also in the 1962 Missale Romanum for the 13th Sunday after Pentecost, was in the ancient Verona Sacramentary and the Gelasian Sacramentally:
“Omnipotens sempiterne Deus, da nobis fidei spei et caritatis augmentum, et ut mereamur assequi quod promittis, fac nos amare quod praecipis.”
Current ICEL translation (2011): “Almighty ever-living God, increase our faith, hope and charity, and make us love what you command, so that we may merit what you promise.”
Father asks God in prayer to increase in us the theological virtues: faith, hope and charity, bestowed on us in baptism.
