Genesis 9:22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
To see the nakedness of your father or to uncover you father's nakedness is a Hebrew colloquialism that means to lie with your father's wife. Ham's sin was that he had sexual relations with his father's wife. It was through this sin, not that of seeing his father unclothed, for which he was cursed by Noah.
