Found solution, type the following codes in beginning of HTML web page

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="ar">
</head>
<body>

===============
Input new language "Arabic (Saudi Arabia)" in your PC through Windows Control Panel "Keyboards and Languages" to type text in  Editable regions in CMS to update website content in Arabic
