This often happens when using a plugin like WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache that need to add things to the .htaccess file. You can safely delete the top version (the one without the BEGIN/END WordPress lines), but having duplicate entries won’t hurt anything. It will add a tiny bit of overhead as the rules are processed, but it’s negligible on a site that isn’t getting very large amounts of traffic.
