The Prophecy says Macbeth will be king. Duncan is king. Macbeth cannot be king while Duncan is king. Duncan will not be king when he is dead. Therefore, make Duncan dead.
the witches told Macbeth that he would be king, and he is worried about his role in making the prediction come true.
"Hie thee hither, that I may pour my spirits in thine ear." She is saying "Come here, so that I can convince you this is what we should do. That all you have to do is kill Duncan, and we will be king and queen."
Macbeth hesitates to kill Duncan because he has a change of mind. He begins thinking about the fact that Duncan has recently honored him by promoting him to the position of Thane of Cawdor. Likewise he reflects that if you get power by violence you set an example for someone who wants to get rid of you. Also, the King is not only his king but also his cousin. And there is an ancient taboo against harming guests in your house. And besides, if it were ever known what he did, there would be a huge outcry because Duncan is such an agreeable old buffer. And against all of this, what can Macbeth think of to encourage him to kill Duncan? Just the chance of becoming king. Big deal.
In the Shakespearean play 'Macbeth', Act 1, Scene 7, Macbeth reviews all of the reasons why he should not kill King Duncan. He had come into Macbeth's home as a guest. He was related to Macbeth, who was his cousin. He was Macbeth's sovereign. Additionally, he was beloved and respected by the people of Scotland. King Duncan had given diamonds to Lady Macbeth, and the title and properties of the disgraced Thane of Cawdor to Macbeth. The honors that he had bestowed upon Macbeth had brought Macbeth to the attention of important people.There were many reasons not to kill King Duncan. The only reason why he would want to do it was that he was the king's cousin, and the best person to succeed him as king. However, as Macbeth himself concludes, a naked lust for power wasn't a good reason at all. He just wasn't that ambitious. Unfortunately for him, his wife was that ambitious and was also very persuasive.

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.
