Java would be best to learn first! Easier to understand as it tends to read more like a human would read. After Java, I would suggest C# as it is similar to Java, and is one of the most widely implemented Microsoft based languages. Java is good for mobile (Android) development. After that Python is another easier language to learn. Perhaps after learning these easier languages and learning how programming works, you could try your hand at C++, which is an older basis and framework for a lot of languages and programs. Honestly, it really depends on what you plan to use it for.

Java is easier to understand and use because you often don't need to worry which OS it's running on, but C++ tends to be less prone to security issues and users whining (though if they knew C++ is the base of many languages like Java which have issues they may complain about it instead...lol)

I think you should learn C/C++ 1st becasue as @Tom Shaver said C++ is the base of many different languages like java, C#, MATLAB, etc. It is not hard to change to diff language after you got C++. Bottom line it depends on your discipline and learn one which relate to that, learn it hard
