Yod with sheva
The ALA/LC romanization of words like this is discussed in Hebraica
Cataloging on p. 17. This is an imperative from a Pi'el verb of which
the second consonant is yod; when such a yod is vocalized with sheva, we
romanize the sheva as "e"-- the example given is "mesayerim.".
Similarly, one should romanize "hayekhi".
