I have mostly written:
pascal, asm, c, shell, python
and also used:
basic, fortran, ruby, lua, tcl, perl.
I have glanced at:
c++, java.

Reasoning: considering your description, it seems to me the best path
to being able to write useful, flexible, powerful code after the
shortest learning time, plus good beginner resources and clean syntax.
The others I mention do not tick all those boxes, for me.
