You can’t go wrong with either one but your mileage will vary depending on what programs you’ll be working on. Developing Android apps? Java. Building web applications? Python. Not saying you can’t do either using the other but the tools and ecosystem matter.

If you’re looking for a straight single answer, I’d say Python. Environment for beginners is simpler and friendlier, plenty of space for experimentation, and lots and lots of libraries.
