BOTH
There is only one true God. He took flesh and became man only once. When man, He founded only one religion and one Church, the Roman Catholic Religion and the Roman Catholic Church.
That Church is the divinely appointed guardian of the writings divinely inspired by God, known as the Bible. This Holy Bible is like no other book, because no other book has God for its principal author.
Nevertheless the Bible is not the foundation of the Church, but the Church is the foundation of the Bible. That is why Catholics need Mother Church as the guardian and interpreter of the Bible.
Alas, Protestants have sown much confusion in the domain of Bible translations and Bible Studies, and in our own time their errors have been renewed by the pseudo-Catholics known as modernists.

Inspired word of God- men who wrote it were being carried along by the Holy Spirit- so the Bible is GOD'S word, even though a man physically wrote it...Just like if you were to write a book but you had someone else do the typing...you told them what to write- so did God with all these different men who wrote the books of the Bible.
2 Peter:20-21
20Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation. 21For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

The Bible was inspired by God, he directed the men to record his words.

Both, it was written by man to inspire God's followers that it is the true word of God. Most of it was written by John, Matthew, Luke, and Mark.

It was inspired by God but changed over time to make the religion easier for those following it.

God inspired men to write the "Words of God".
The Bible is truth and infallible.
