What does Micah 5:3 mean?

So, for now, God will let his people be handed over to their enemies, until the woman in labor gives birth. Then the rest of his people will come back to join the Israelites. Micah 5:3 - Modern Text Bible

(There will be a time of hardship and waiting, but eventually, restoration will come. The image of a woman giving birth shows that something new and hopeful is on the way.)
