Menetije (grčki: Μενοίτιος, Μενοίτης), što znači osuđena moć, u grčkoj mitologiji je titan druge generacije, sin Japeta i Klimene ili Azije, i brat Atlasa, Prometeja i Epimeteja. Menetija je ubio Zeus bljeskom munje u Titanomahiji i prognan u Tartar.Hesiod, Theogony 507–516 ; Apollodorus, 1.2.3 ; Scholia to Aeschylus, Prometheus Bound 347

Njegovo ime znači "moć osuđena na propast", a potiče od starogrčkih riječi menos ("moć, moć") i oitos ("propast, bol"). Hesiod je Menetija opisao kao izuzetno gordog i poletnog do samog kraja. Prema onome što njegovo ime sugeriše, zajedno sa Hesiodovim vlastitim izvještajem, Menetije je možda bio bog Titana nasilnog bijesa i brzopletih akcija.
