On version 1.16.0 of LuaHBTeX from TeX Live distribution version 2023 using LUALaTeX 2023.8.28

Here's an example: [cid:40f08e09-a23e-473e-bfa5-3c9262bac9d2]

The letters are written in reverse order, making it complete gibberish

```LaTeX
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{translations}

\DeclareTranslation{Arabic}{text}{ ﻓﺼﺤﻰ اﻟﻌﺼﺮ }

\usepackage{babel}

\babelfont{rm}{FreeSerif}

\begin{document}

\selectlanguage{arabic}

\GetTranslation{text}

\end{document}
```
