Context of Romans 15:10
8Let me explain. Christ became a servant for the Jewish people to reveal God’s truth. As a result, he fulfilled God’s promise to the ancestors of the Jewish people. 9People who are not Jewish praise God for his mercy as well. This is what the Scriptures say, “That is why I will give thanks to you among the nations and I will sing praises to your name.” And Scripture says again, “You nations, be happy together with his people!” 11And again, “Praise the Lord, all you nations! Praise him, all you people of the world!” 12Again, Isaiah says, “There will be a root from Jesse. He will rise to rule the nations, and he will give the nations hope.”

- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10And again - ; Deuteronomy 32:43. In this place the “nations” or Gentiles are called on to rejoice with the Jews, for the interposition of God in their behalf.
