Well first of all, Lady Macbeth didn't murder King Duncan. She was going to, but for some reason Duncan reminded her of her father and she couldn't bring herself to kill him, so Macbeth murdered the King.

He murdered the king so the prophecy the three witches told him would come true....that'd he'd become the king.
