Try this variant that adds both JLabels directly to the JFrame.
If that is not the effect you are after, there are many alternatives,
including adding them both to a JPanel that is itself added to 
one particular area of the BorderLayout of the JFrame.

<sscce>
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import javax.swing.*;

public class LabelTest extends JFrame {

  public LabelTest(){

    setDefaultCloseOperation(
      WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    JLabel jLabel1 = new JLabel();
    jLabel1.setText("jLabel1");
    JLabel jLabel2 = new JLabel();
    jLabel2.setText(" TEXT ");
    //jLabel1.add(jLabel2);
    getContentPane().add(
      jLabel1, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    getContentPane().add(
      jLabel2, BorderLayout.EAST);
    pack();
  }

  public static void main(String args[]) {
    LabelTest lTest = new LabelTest ();
    lTest.setSize(400,300);
    lTest.setVisible(true);
  }
}
</sscce>
