JTextArea in the swing allows line wraping.
Here is some sample code.  hope it helps.

    JTextArea tblDescr = new JTextArea();
       ......
    tblDescr.setText("  table Description");
    tblDescr.setSelectedTextColor(new Color(255, 255, 204));
    hdrPanel.add(tblDescr, new XYConstraints(3, 46, 840, 32));
    tblDescr.setLineWrap(true);
    tblDescr.setRequestFocusEnabled(false);
    tblDescr.setText(getdisplaytext(query));
    tblDescr.setBackground(Color.lightGray);
    tblDescr.setFont(new Font("Courier", 1, 12));
    tblDescr.setEditable(false);
