Traditional:

BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new 
FileInputStream(fnm), "UTF-16"));
String line;
while((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
     // process line
}

More close to youe Python code:

List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(fnm, StandardCharSets.UTF_16);

But there are plenty of alternatives.
