Context of Romans 15:10
8Remember that Christ came as a servant to the Jews to show that God is true to the promises he made to their ancestors. 9He also came so that the Gentiles might give glory to God for his mercies to them. That is what the psalmist meant when he wrote: “For this, I will praise you among the Gentiles; I will sing praises to your name.” And in another place it is written, “Rejoice with his people, you Gentiles.” 11And yet again, “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles. Praise him, all you people of the earth.” 12And in another place Isaiah said, “The heir to David’s throne will come, and he will rule over the Gentiles. They will place their hope on him.”

- 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.
