Does not matter, you will pick the wrong one. Thing is you will always regret not coding in X because of feature Y, when you actually have a project. On the other hand, you will not notice all the times that features A, B and C of your language of choice are helpful. So at least subjectively, another language would have been better.
As actual advice, it depends on your goals. If you want to build websites, then you should start with Java Script and perhaps another language for the backend. If you want to understand computer systems on a fundamental level or hack the Linux kernel, then you should pick C. And if you want to see progress, pick Python. But it is not too important, since a large part of programming is language agnostic. So just pick one, and learn another when the pain becomes unbearable. ( Then return to the first one, once you realize your mistake.)
