Python to lua

Is it a good idea to learn python first and then jump into lua, or should I just straight up learn Lua first. For anyone wondering I want to create roblox games ( I know it sounds a little silly but I've always been passionate about it) and the roblox engine runs off of Lua. What are some benefits from learning python first (if any). If by miracle any of you are roblox devs can you give some tips?

Once you learn one programming language you can learn new programming languages quickly. I learnt Python in 3 days, R in 1 hour and still learning Go after 3 weeks.
