Answer 1

Based on Oded's and Teddy's answers, I came up with this method, which worked for me:

public String getProperHebrew(String gibberish){
    byte[] orig = gibberish.getBytes(Charset.forName("windows-1252"));

    try {
        return new String(orig, "UTF-8");
    } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        return "";
    }
}
