Neither of those files are the correct files to edit.

You want to edit the ifcfg-<interface name> file (replace
<interface name> with the name of the network interface) and add
PEERDNS=no in the file.  This will make it so DHCP doesn't overwrite
the resolv.conf.

If you just want to hard-code DNS servers, you can either do that in
your networkmanager configuration, or add DNS1=9.9.9.9 to the ifcfg
file.  You can add a second IP with DNS2=1.1.1.1, too.  Use whatever
DNS IPs you want.

This is documented in /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt
