Isaiah 14:12

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

Lucifer is not a reference to the spiritual demon Satan, but rather Esau, known today as the so-called white-man. Nor is it a reference to "fallen angels" (Ecclesiasticus 16:26-28, Psalms 103:20)
