Translate 'Et resedit qui erat mortuus et coepit loqui et dedit'?
This is an incomplete quotation from Luke 7:15 in the Vulgate translation of the Bible. The full verse is:
et resedit qui erat mortuus et coepit loqui et dedit illum matri suae
And he who was dead sat up and began to speak, and he gave him to his mother.
This verse is part of a story in which Jesus raises a young man from the dead in the presence of his mourning mother. The omission of illum matri suae ("him to his mother") makes it look like the raised man is the subject of dedit "he gave", but context makes it clear that this refers to Jesus' giving the young man back to his mother.
Rest is the English eqiuvalent of 'qvies', or 'quies'. The word in Latin is a feminine gender noun. It literally means 'quiet, repose'. But it has many translations into English. For example, it may be rendered into English as 'dream', 'lair, resting place', rest at night, sleep', and 'sleep of death'.

- ago, agere, egi, actus: "to set in motion; to do; to act"
- facio, facere, feci, factus: "to do; to make"

What does Rubrum quem viderat mean?
There is no word Rubrum. If you mean Ruborem quem viderat, that would be "The redness ( or blush) that he-or-she had seen."
The correct quotation is 'rubum quem viderat', a reference to the burning bush which Moses saw. See the score of the motet of this name by Josquin on www.cpdl.org, where a translation of the full passage can also be found. - Mick Swithinbank
I would guess there should be a verb in here, like dat, meaning '(he/she/it) gives.' With that verb, I'd translate this sentence as: "The slave-woman gave wine to the master."
