>lable4.setText( e.getSource().getText());Though you most likely have to revalidate the container for the change to show.

labels don't support ActionListeners. You will need to use a MouseListener and handle the mouseClicked() event.

When you change a property of the component it will repaint itself. You only use revalidate() when you add or remove a component from a container.
