Answer:

That he will be thane the thane of Cawdor

That he will be king

That Banquo's descendants eventually will become royalty

Step-by-step explanation:

The first and the second tell him:

First Witch

All hail, Macbeth, hail to thee, thane of Glamis

Second Witch

All hail, Macbeth, hail to thee, thane of Cawdor!

Macbeth was already Thane of Glamis, but the Thane of Cawdor was someone else.

But the third says something different:

Third Witch

All hail, Macbeth, thou shalt be king hereafter!"

About Banquo, they say:

Third Witch

Thou shalt get kings, though thou be none:

So all hail, Macbeth and Banquo!
