You have multiplied the nation, you have increased their joy

The word "you" refers to Yahweh. The word "their" refers to the people of Israel, but Isaiah includes himself as part of Israel. AT: "Lord, you will greatly increase our people and our joy."

they rejoice before you like the joy at harvest time, as men rejoice when they divide the plunder

AT: "We will rejoice before you like when people gather their crops or like when a battle is over and soldiers divide what they took."
