This is inaccurate: Emacs (at least the brand known as "GNU Emacs")
supports bidirectional editing in text terminals and GUI displays
alike, since Emacs 24.1, which was released in June 2012. The latest
released version 26.1 supports all the latest changes in the UBA, up
to and including Unicode 10.0.

What Emacs version did you try which led you to the conclusion that
bidirectional editing and display in Emacs were not supported on text
terminals?
