when Macbeth visits the witches the second time, which noble do they say he should fear
Macbeth says it, when he's contemplating the witches' prophecy.
Macbeth- Act 1, Scene 3- Banquo says this to Macbeth because the witches just told MAcbeth he is the Thane of Cawdor and the Thane of Cawdor is still alive.
The witches, in Act IV Scene i
He means he's sceptical of Macbeth's rise to power and starts to doubt that Macbeth acted righteously for the position of king, despite the witches' prophecy saying he would be king. It also shows his uncertainty in the witches as he doesn't have full trust in their prophecies
MacBeth tells Banquo that he had not been thinking of the witches after Banquo says he, himself, has. Banquo is thinking about the predictions and MacBeth becoming Thane of Cawdor fulfilling one of the prophesies. This occurs after MacBeth is set on killing Duncan, the king. He is trying to hide his guilt even before he is truly guilty.
Lady Macbeth echoes the words of the witches when she says "All hail, Macbeth, that shalt be king hereafter!". This echoes the witches' prophecy that Macbeth will become king.
