Export Foreign Language Materials with Better Bibtex

I have all of the sources for my dissertation in a folder in Zotero. I use Better Bibtex to generate a .bib file of my sources. One problem I have run into is the format of foreign language titles. For example:

@article{muraokaHowAnalyseTranslate2000,
title = {How to Analyse and Translate the Idiomatic Phrase מי יתן},
author = {Muraoka, Takamitsu},
date = {2000},
journaltitle = {BIOSCS},
volume = {33},
pages = {47--52},
langid = {hebrew}}

When this is cited in my Latex document, the formatting of מי יתן is incorrect. However, when I mark it as Hebrew text as \HE{מי יתן} in the .bib file everything is formatted perfectly.

My question, then, is it possible to place foreign language titles in brackets like \HE{}, for example, so that I do not have the adjust the .bib file everytime a new source is added to the file? When I have attempted to enclose the words in brackets, it prints "\HE{מי יתן}" instead of מי יתן.

Thanks for any insight you can give.
