Mojang's new update is limiting the number of characters in lang files, it starts scrolling (left-to-right and vice versa) when there are a lot of characters in the lang string because they wanted everyone to see the full text (on all displays).
A way to fix that issue is to add :offset_-256:
in front and :offset_-256:
at the end of the lang overwrite entry.
This tricks the game into thinking the text is shorter and so avoid making it scroll.
