10But I feel sure about you, because we belong to the Lord. I know that you will agree with what I say about this. But as for the man who is confusing you, God will punish him. It does not matter who he is, God will punish him.

Context of Galatians 5:10
8It is not God who has caused you to change what you believe. No! God is the one who has chosen you to serve him. 9People say this: ‘Only a small amount of yeast in the flour will cause a loaf of bread to grow big.’ But I feel sure about you, because we belong to the Lord. I know that you will agree with what I say about this. But as for the man who is confusing you, God will punish him. It does not matter who he is, God will punish him. 11My Christian friends, do you think that I still teach that someone must circumcise believers? If I really taught that, then I would not still receive trouble from people. What I teach about Christ's death on the cross would not cause anyone to become angry. 12Those people who are causing trouble and want to circumcise you should cut their own bodies! Yes, that is what they should do!
