Contextual Overview
13 But certain from the strolling Jews, exorcists, undertook to name the name of the Lord Jesus over those having evil spirits, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches. 14 And there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, doing this. 15 But answering the evil spirit said, I know Jesus, and I comprehend Paul, but who are you? 16 And the man in whom was the evil spirit leaped on them, and having overmastered them, he was strong against them, so that having been wounded and naked, they fled out of that house. 17 And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, those living in Ephesus. And fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. 18 And many of those who had believed came confessing, and reporting their practices. 19 And many of the ones practicing the curious arts, bringing together the books, burned them before all. And they counted the prices of them, and found it to be fifty thousands of silver. 20 So with might, the Word of the Lord increased and was strong.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And many that believed,.... In Jesus Christ, whose name was spoken of with great respect, and which spread fear in every person:
came; to the apostle:
and confessed; their sins; and acknowledged what a wicked life they had led:
and showed their deeds; their former evil deeds, which they had been guilty of; one copy reads, "their sins"; see Matthew 3:6.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Their deeds - Their actions; their evil course of life. The direct reference here is to the magical arts which had been used, but the word may also be designed to denote “iniquity” in general. They who make a profession of religion will be willing to confess their transgressions, and no man can have evidence that he is truly renewed who is not willing to confess as well as to forsake his sins, Romans 10:10; Proverbs 28:13, “He that covereth his sins shall not prosper; but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall find mercy.”
