Does `M-x org-latex-export-to-pdf` not work?

When using luatex, babel can automagically switch the language (and
hence the fonts and direction) based on the unicode range with
something like `\babelprovide[import, onchar=ids fonts]{hebrew}`, see
the babel manual for more details.

I haven't use these tools yet, but with some quick search, suggest you
need to install the corresponding packages first, for example in here:
[https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/308515/latex-using-
babel](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/308515/latex-using-
babel).

Then, add the line suggested by the previous user with this prefixed
to the top of your org file: \`#+LATEX\_HEADER:\`.

Now exporting gave you what you want.
