Default Text string inverting

I am importing text, and it comes in reading from right to left.
How can I change it to read from left to right?

I know that the formula below will invert two words, but how do you do more
than two words?

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND(" ",A1))&" "&LEFT(A1,FIND(" ",A1)-1)

Let's say I wanted "Right To Left" to read "Left To Right" or "John J Doe"
to read "Doe J John"....
