Note 1 topic: translate-versebridge

וְ⁠ע֨וֹד אֲנִ֤י מְדַבֵּר֙ וּ⁠מִתְפַּלֵּ֔ל וּ⁠מִתְוַדֶּה֙ חַטָּאתִ֔⁠י וְ⁠חַטַּ֖את עַמִּ֣⁠י יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וּ⁠מַפִּ֣יל תְּחִנָּתִ֗⁠י לִ⁠פְנֵי֙ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהַ֔⁠י עַ֖ל הַר־קֹ֥דֶשׁ אֱלֹהָֽ⁠י

and,still I (Some words not found in UHB: and,still I speaking and,[I_was]_praying and,[I_was]_confessing sin_of,my and,the_sin_of my_people_of,my Yisrael and,[I_was]_making_fall supplication_of,my to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH God_of,my on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in mountain_of holy_of my_God_of,my )

You can create a verse bridge for these two verses, 20-21, in order not to repeat the information “I was still speaking.” The UST models one way to do that.

and,still I speaking and,[I_was]_praying and,[I_was]_confessing sin_of,my and,the_sin_of my_people_of,my Yisrael and,[I_was]_making_fall supplication_of,my to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH God_of,my on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in mountain_of holy_of my_God_of,my

The words that the ULT translates as And I was still speaking indicate that Gabriel came to Daniel at the same time as when Daniel was praying. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could describe the time relationship more explicitly. Alternate translation: [While I was still speaking and praying and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel and presenting my supplication before Yahweh my God for the holy mountain of my God]
