Incidentally, your error message shows `public` but your code example doesn't. — Lew Bloch, Jun 10 '17 at 08:40

You're missing the name of the class:

public class MyFirstClass
// Here -----^
{
    public static void main(String[] args) 
    {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

Note that a public class' name must match the name of the file that declares it.
