A:Lucifer is mentioned in Isaiah chapter 14, but not as the Christian devil. This passage refers to the king of Babylon, who laid the nations low. It talks of the king's pomp and splendour, how he had ruled the nations in anger, and his fate after his overthrow by the king of Persia. He had compared himself to the Morning Star and was thus derisorily called 'Lucifer' (lucem ferre, which mean 'light-bearer', a name for the dawn appearance of the planet Venus) and had thought that he would ascend into heaven and sit among the stars, but was now himself persecuted. This text was misunderstood by early Christian scholars and even some Jewish scholars of the period, with both assuming that it referred to Satan or the devil. Modern Jewish scholars accept the literal reading of the text, which really does refer to the king, but conservative Christians continue to misinterpret it.

Another Answer:

As the 'ruler of this world' (see John 12, 14, and 16) he is referred to as Lucifer in Isaiah 14(before he sinned) and described as a King of Tyre (previous passage was to the human 'Prince' of Tyre) in Ezekiel 28:

Isaiah 14:12New King James Version (NKJV) The Fall of Lucifer

12 "How you are fallen from heaven,

O Lucifer,[a] son of the morning!

How you are cut down to the ground,

You who weakened the nations!

Lamentation for the King of Tyre11 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 12 "Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord God:

"You were the seal of perfection,

Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

13 You were in Eden, the garden of God;

Every precious stone was your covering:

The sardius, topaz, and diamond,

Beryl, onyx, and jasper,

Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold.

The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes

Was prepared for you on the day you were created.

14 "You were the anointed cherub who covers;

I established you;

You were on the holy mountain of God;

You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.

15 You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created,

Till iniquity was found in you.
