Of course it's beneficial to know more than one languages - there's a lot that's similar between languages, but the differences help you to grow as a developer.
I work in Scala but tend to do personal projects in Kotlin (though there are probably more similarities between the two than differences). I tend to use Python for some automation/data processing tasks, though I was a Python developer for a couple years, so these days I want to do those tasks more in Clojure. Sometimes I'll also write Bash scripts, but think I prefer a more fully featured programming language in general, so would default to Python or Clojure.
