That he decided to have Macduff killed
he will make himself blind
The witches never said "Macbeth, Macbeth, Macbeth". In Act 4, Scene 1, both the First Apparition and the Second Apparition begin their prophecies by calling out, "Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth!" Macbeth responds to the First Apparition by thanking it for warning him against the Thane of Fife (Macduff). Macbeth responds to the Second Apparition with: "Had I three ears, I'd hear thee."
The first apparition in Shakespeare's Macbeth is a floating head that tells Macbeth to beware of Macduff. It says that Macbeth should be on guard against Macduff because he poses a threat to Macbeth's reign.
The first apparition warned Macbeth, 'Macbeth, Macbeth, Macbeth: beware Macduff, Beware the Thane of Fife. Dismiss me. Enough'
The first apparition warned Macbeth, 'Macbeth, Macbeth, Macbeth: beware Macduff, Beware the Thane of Fife. Dismiss me. Enough'
Macbeth says that the first apparition warns him to beware Macduff, the second apparition tells him to fear no man born of a woman, and the third apparition tells him he will not be defeated until Birnam Wood comes to Dunsinane Hill.

The prophecy is that Macbeth will become the Thane of Cawdor and then the King of Scotland. But Banquo's son, Fleance will become the next king after Macbeth. Banquo and Macbeth think the prophecy is ridiculous until Macbeth become Thane of Cawdor because the last Thane of Cawdor was tratior as he sided with the Norwegian Vikings during battle. The next Thane of Cawdor will be the ultamite tratior as he will kill the king to become King.
He will not be defeated until the Birnam wood marches to his castle.
There's no right answer. You have to decide for yourself who was responsible, which is what is so great about literature. There's either Lady Macbeth, the witches, or Macbeth himself. I believe Lady Macbeth was first to blame for her manipulation on Macbeth, then Macbeth because he chose to do the things he did under Lady Macbeth's word. The witches meerly told him what was going to happen in Macbeth's life.
The witches showed Macbeth three apparitions: an armed head, a bloody child, and a child with a crown on his head. The first apparition warned Macbeth of Macduff, the second assured him of his invincibility until Birnam Wood moved to Dunsinane, and the third promised that he would not be defeated until Great Birnam Wood came to high Dunsinane Hill. Macbeth reacted by feeling emboldened and reassured by the prophecies.

The poem, 'The Apparitions,' by William Butler Yeats, is about an old man reflecting on life and of coming death. The poem has some humor when he talks of the worst apparition being a coat on a coat hanger.
