In Macbeth what did the witches actually say that led Macbeth to believe he was actually king like the prophecies?

The first said, “Hail Macbeth, Thane of Glamis!
The second said, “Hail Macbeth, Thane of Cawdor!”
The third said, “Hail Macbeth, who someday shall be King!”
pretty straightforward, huh?

The witches said that he no born from woman shall kill him, that when the forest moves is when he'll be defeated and if you want to know the prophecies the first one was a head (that would be his head), a child with a crown (Fleance, Banquo's son that someday will be King), and something to do with a forest (that is what I told you previously). For better explanations check the book. Wish you luck!!

That the man who would defeat him would not be born of a woman. Macbeth thought that every man is born of a woman, so no man would defeat him.
