I'm not sure what you mean by "permanent": with electronic documents, 
little if anything is permanent (alas).

Suggestions:

(0) Select the output cell(s).

(1) From the Cell menu select Cell Properties and then

   - make sure Evaluatable is unchecked

(2) Open the Format > Option Inspector.  Make sure "Show option values" 
is set for Selection, go to the

   Cell Options > General Properties

section. There change the setting for Deletable to:

   Deletable False

and click Apply.

(3) Either just above that setting in the Options Inspector, likewise 
change the setting for Editable to:

   Editable False

(Or close the Option Inspector, go back to menu Cell > Cell Properties 
and uncheck Editable there.

Caution: Do NOT make the cell non-editable before you try to make it 
Deletable -- it won't work!
