As others have pointed out already, this is a compatibility issue—you need exactly Java 8 to run Eclipse.

• Install JDK 8 if you don’t have it already.
• In Eclipse, go to Window > Preferences > Installed JREs. Make sure Java 8 appears in the list and is selected. After that, close Eclipse.
• Additionally, eclipse.ini also has a reference to the Java VM it uses. Make sure the VM it points to is Java 8 (see link on how to find it and how to set VM preferences).
• Restart Eclipse and try again.
