In this excerpt from act I, scene II, of Macbeth, what can be inferred from Banquo’s response to the witches’ prophecy?

BANQUO:
That, trusted home,
Might yet enkindle you unto the crown,
Besides the Thane of Cawdor. But 'tis strange:
And oftentimes to win us to our harm,
The instruments of darkness tell us truths;
Win us with honest trifles, to betray's
In deepest consequence.—
Cousins, a word, I pray you.

Answer:

Banquo's response to the witches' prophecy suggests that Banquo realizes that the witches represent evil.

While having a conversation with Macbeth (Act I, Scene 3), Macbeth tells Banquo that he should believe that his children will become kings, as they were promised so by the witches. Banquo replies that the whole thing about them is strange, implying that he would not be so certain about their good intentions. Banquo refers to the witches as 'the instruments of darkness', that partially tell people the truth in order to destroy them.
