In the ISE, it probably already works fine.  At the console, you'll probably need to change your code page to something that supports the Hebrew characters.  Based on a quick web search, code page 1255 might work.  Try this, at any point before you call the command that needs to display Hebrew characters.

[Console]::OutputEncoding = [Text.Encoding]::GetEncoding(1255)

Ah, good call.  Hadn't considered that the raster fonts might not support those characters, even if a working code page is selected.
