Romans 15:9 And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy name.
English “Gentiles” emboldened in Romans 15:9, 10, 11, 12, 16, 18 and 27 were translated from Greek neuter noun 1484 ethnos being any and all “nations” other than the nation of Israel. Greek neuter noun 1484 ethnos was translated into “nation”{s} in Mark 13:10 Acts 17:24-31 and God’s perspective is best represented in 1Peter 2:9 “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light”.
