Isaiah 14:12-15 KJV

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! 13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. 15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

Isaiah opens this chapter(Isaiah 14:1-11) by describing the restoration of Israel and the demise of the Babylonian king.In the middle of his narrative the prophet switches to Lucifer for about three verses then returns to were he left about the Babylonian king(Isaiah 14:16-24)

Could the three verses have been a later addition?
